Comments on: Sony responds to PSP 3000 screen issues

The new Sony PSP exhibits on-screen jaggies that bother many users. Sony says it's a result of the anti-ghosting feature--but is the cure worse than the disease?

[Macajuel]

Heh, my PSP-1000's still going strong. I really can't think of any reason why I'd want to upgrade at this point. I'm concerned about Sony's nochalant and disinterested response to the issue.

"Since this is due to hardware specification, there are no plans for a system software update concerning this issue"

You know Sony.............................we really don't care what you're NOT going to do about it .......tell us how you're going to fix it and when......and while you're at it, throw in a 2nd analog stick and a solid state drive.

hell yeah they WERE or HAVE to put a 2nd analog stick how the **** am i supposed 2 play shooter games like ghost recon

[blakghostSP]

you know l see this on HD LCD tv's to i think its just how they render video now.
remember it out puts video to

i also have the PSP-1000. i don't have a single problem with it. the only thing that does bother is the battery life, it doesn't last long at all. but since it was a first gen, its expected, overall, its still good. maybe they should release PSP 2 already, i have no idea why they had to "UPDATE" the PSP. It seems like it caused some problems.

[ibrahimau]

so... i was planing to buy one ,, what i should do now ?
how about i pod touch is it better ?

[nissanGTRfan1]

are u stupid of course its better 2 buy an ipod touch

[ajnauron]

Get the PSP-2000 instead. It can do homebrew and play real games better than just the iTouch's SPORE.

[ipodtouchuser93]

If you want a device that plays vids and has tons of apps you need an ipod but if u want a hardcore gaming system get the psp

[nissanGTRfan1]

im afraid 2 buy this psp 3000 because sony might release a psp4000 next year since this one sux ass

[Persico06]

There really wasn't any talk about a PSP 4000, but if you want to wait for a significantly newer/better one, wait for the PSP 2, not this sorry excuse for an upgrade, the PSP 3000.

[the_iceman]

I'm just gonna pass on the whole portable gaming thing altogether.

[dprllm]

My consideration to go Portable just took a dive too.
Sony is strong where strong, and crap where crap. No middle ground.
Nor resolve.

[emptyLisZT]

when does the psp-3000 arrive in indonesia..??

[mediaman6]

I'm not surprised by Sony's response. I received the same kind of letter when I complained about their stupid game cases coming apart. I still have the first version of the PSP. I guess I'll stick with it a little longer.

I have recently purchased the PSP 3000 and I have to say I have had no problems with the screen I have played the psp in bright sunlight has well has the dark I had not any problems with screen in all to me the screen is much better and now shows the colour of a game much better and clearer I have a coule of golf games which have a lot colour especially green and look at on my old psp 2000 and I noticed the difference the 3000 is much clearer.
I also like there recent updates to 5.1 where you can look at games etc on the psp site and download games from that site. I would like to see more choice in the games we can download and purchase. overall the PSP 3000 gets my vote 10 out 10 keep up the good work.

[Elooder]

I'm considering purchasing a PSP at the moment and have a feeling this issue with the screen may be more due to some being picky than due to actualy bad display specs...
This will not influence my decision to buy a PSP.

[XanderKage]

I'm keeping my PSP-1000 until thay release one with 2 analog sticks. Or at least BluTooth. Until then all other hardware "uodates" won't do much...

[cmsb1214]

Why would you want bluetooth on a PSP? All it is good for is listening to music and transferring files, both of which can be done better with a wire. Bluetooth also uses up a lot of battery, which the PSP is known for having little of already. I agree that it should have two analog sticks but bluetooth seems pointless for a device of this type.

[Ramonl2]

I agree with jondavision its my 1st psp but I haven't had any problems with it.

[Chris686]

I love the games on the PSP, but I'll probably wait for a more dramatic revision. The overall design hurts my hands. I had to return the thing.

[ROARINGSUCCESS]
